Hi there,
I have two OO spreadsheet files: ReportA.sxc and ReportB.sxc.
Whenever I open a spreadsheet, I get the "Main Toolbar" on the left edge of the window.
This toolbar has a button called "Show Form Functions"
For ReportA.sxc and ReportB.sxc the same button behave in different way:
In ReportA.sxc the button icon looks like a form (and a small green triangle) and I can add controls to the spreadsheet.
In ReportB..sxc the button icon looks like an index finger (and a small green triangle) and I cannot add controls to the spreadsheet.
How do I add controls to the ReportB.sxc? I tried to follow the directions to open ReportB.sxc in the design mode, but could get anything.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello Shri,
1) Try to hold left click on the icon that "looks like an index finger (and a small green triangle)" in ReportB.sxc.
2) Try to Unprotect Document/Sheet by going into Tools=>Protect Document (Uncheck Protection). You cannot add controls in a protected sheet.
